Updated Helix build, Kodi master from Nov 01 + newclock4 commits.

Kodi Master:
• Master changelog
• [CEC] bump libCEC to 2.2.0 + several more CEC related commits
• A lot of newclock4 features has now gone into master

Newclock4 additions:
• [mmalrenderer] Add choice of 3 deinterlace schemes
• [omxcore] Skip out of flush on error
• [SinkPi] Handle multichannel layout more like OMXAudio
• [rbp] Default extract thumbnails to false
• [cec] Add settings for configuring button repeats

An interesting new feature to test is the new repeat settings for CEC.
You find this in Settings - System - Input devices - Peripherals - CEC Adapter.

GPU firmware from Oct 17 included:
• arm_loader: Add lock to rotated frame updates to avoid an unsafe update from mailbox channel
• hdmi: Fix for attached flag in hdmi status when booting with cable disconnected

NB! To be able to run this build you must first run enable-kodi.sh as explained here!

To install Kodi build, SSH to Pi (first run ’sudo enable-kodi.sh’ if not already enabled):

Code:

wget -O kodi-14-20141102-nc4.tar.gz http://goo.gl/aIyAEr --no-check-certificate
pv kodi-14-20141102-nc4.tar.gz | tar xzf - -C /home/pi/.upgrade
sudo cp /home/pi/.upgrade/kodi-14-20141102-nc4/{fixup_x.dat,start_x.elf} /boot
ln -sfn /home/pi/.upgrade/kodi-14-20141102-nc4/xbmc-bcm /home/pi/.xbmc-current
sudo reboot

See post #1 for more info

OK, system upgraded using enable-kodi script and above instructions.

Boots ok. I get the following erros on entering main menu (confluence)
Raspbmc Setting failed
house_keeping.py failed

Good news is that the mythtv add on is working in this version (although it is an old version 1.9.20! (just in time to see Dean Martin and John Wayne in Rio Bravo in the classic scene in the sherrifs office realising he needs to quit drinking and step up, awesome. )

Will test overnight to see if anything else is amiss.

Cheers
